The annual “Pasadena Holiday Tradition for the Whole Family” again offers two performances! Take your pick—4:30pm or 7:30pm—because each one offers plenty of audience carol singing, adult and children’s choirs, handbells, and the Friends of Music Orchestra.

Highlights of this year’s program include Bob Chilcott’s setting of The Twelve Days of Christmas, and Clement Clarke Moore’s classic poem “The Night Before Christmas” read by American actress and singer Julia Aks, accompanied by the Friends of Music Orchestra.

Other pieces include arrangements and compositions by John Rutter, Anne Dudley, Howard Helvey, Philip Lawson, and others.
